Brent, click on the FAQ link above, then click on #21 in the list. There is a link there that has some good info on Starter/generators and trouble shooting electrical problems.

Does anyone happen to know if there would be any problems using an old pin driver plate as opposed to buying a new one? I need to start getting parts lined up for my clutch rebuild and I was trying to avoid the cost of a brand new pin driver, I do plan on using new springs, clutch disc and roll pins though.

These are some pics of the clutch after pd. You can see one of the pins has been ripped out on the middle picture.

Thanks for the input.

Brian - As long as the pins are tight and it isn't warped I don't see why not.

The only problem I see with useing a used one and not a new one is, it is a used one and cost less to purchase.
There aint no reason to try and save a buck or two, after all it aint like you can take it with you when you meet the big guy up in the sky.

I think you guys need to check your bifocals or tilt your head the other way, LOL
Look close at this pic,

He didn't say he was gonna use the same used one , just a "used one".
And I think the pin is loose !

 

[digger]

Just a little.

I needed to swap the tiller for the plow tonight. For those of you who have a tiller, I highly recommend replacing the standard rear plate bolts with studs. It sure makes swapping the tiller quick work, and you don't loose any fluid.

I just wished I knew how the previous pin got ripped out?

With out bending the plate?

Terry B. -

I've seen that idea somewhere before...

 

[kweaver]

Yea but yours was cleaner

Guys,

On my previous post about problems with sealing the rear tranny cover, I mistakenly wrote that the rear cover is attached with 3/16" diameter bolts rather than the correct 3/8 diameter bolts. Sorry for my error.

Would it be easier for me to buy an entire transaxle on eBay, and replace the whole thing rather than tearing it apart to replace a fork?

The reason the pin was able to rip out of the plate and not bend it is, it a <font size="+1"><font color="ff0000">I</font><font color="000000">H</font> <font color="ffff00">CUB CADET</font></font>

It would be easier to maybe contact a sponsor or post a want ad in the classifieds abd buy from one of us rather than someone you don't know anything about.

Todd,
It wouldn't save you much work. You have to split the tractor either way and you have to figure in your time and gas money to get a replacement transmission. Once the trans is out the time to replace the shift fork is minimal and you get to do something that you haven't done before. It's a learning oppertunity
